<p>Paganism allows me to connect with the world and my ancestors. I enjoy symbolism and ritual and it helps me to meditate and calm down. I love celebrating life and nature and this helps me do that. It helps me flow my awe and wonder of the Universe, life, nature, etc into something tangible.</p>

I consider myself a pagan in the strictest sense of the word. A deep appreciation of all nature has to offer us and no more. No jumpin around beatin on a drum or runnin around nekkid,(too much). No celebrations of any kind. Just as basic as you can get.

Because I love nature cycles and complexity. And I need to enjoy them in a significant way.<br />
As an evolution theories student, I´m see the world and all its complexity and I find it to be more amazing that any mythical story ever told. I´m see the things throught system stheory and determinist chaos theory, and its not difficult at all, I mean, its the way I have been seeing the world since I was a child. Everything related to everything, and everything belonging, being part of something…

I think that what used to upset me more, being raised in a catholic community, was the anthropocentric look of the world. I have never been like that, I don´t know why, but I have always thought that all life is wonderful and unique. I felt as a child, that saying that we are superior beings was to insult every other life form. I´m more tolerant with that now, but it still bothers me. So you celebrate them as well…tag:www.atheistnexus.org,2009-06-20:2182797:Comment:3815272009-06-20T21:58:05.730ZLeaThttp://www.atheistnexus.org/profile/LeaT
